foray between ocean - the darkling thrush lyrics
i leant upon a coppice gate
when frost was specter-gray
and winter’s dregs made desolate
the weakening eye of day
the tangled bine-stems scored the sky
like strings of broken lyres
the land’s sharp features seemed to me
the century’s corpse outlearnt
its crypt the cloudy canopy
the wind its death-lament
the ancient pulse of germ and birth
was shrunken hard and dry
and every spirit upon the earth
seemed fervor less as i
at once a voice arose among
the bleak twigs overhead
so little cause for caroling
of such ecstatic sound
was written on terrestrial things
afar or nigh around
that i could think there trembled through
his happy good-night air
some blessed hope, whereof he knew
and i was unaware
an aged thrush, frail, gaunt and small
with blast-be ruffled plume
had chosen thus to fling his soul
upon the growing gloom
